Hi, I decided to make a Needlessly Elaborate REF for Auri because the other one was like a year and a half old, and I wanted to update his design. I'll probably be doing this for like, several other characters because I want to change outfits and designs for my AU. Apologies for my chicken scratch. I pray it is legible to other people vhyfgjhjhgjygf
Original REF (for art comparison sake) under the cut.

I think I drew this in like April of last year or some shit. Been a long time. :]

chicago tags pt. 1
preamble:
walking around chicago is like going on a scavenger hunt, it's so freaking lush with tags! living here has made me all the more grateful for graffiti and to have gotten more into it this year, it feels like there's a hidden language (corny to say i kno) and clues everywhere for you to notice if you just pay attention. i feel like i'm almost creating a parasocial relationship with some of the tags i've seen around, especially "kool cig", because it feels like everywhere i go it's there with me- i wanna know who kool cig is and be their friend! they're hitting all the same spots as me! "wonder" is also one that i rly love and feels like has to be done by a gay faggot. some honorable mentions that i haven't documented enough of that are a couple rly prolific taggers are "loki" and "jamal". i gotta get more pics of those guys because they are EVERYWHERE especially loki. oh also i wanna say these are tags just from the neighborhoods of logan square/hermosa and west humboldt park/ukrainian village, so definitely not trying to claim that im sampling tags from the entire city of chicago ! ok now here's the post
"kool cig"

i rly love how playful kool cig feels with its wonky 'k' and 'g' lettering. it stands out everywhere & is a good reminder that legibility and consistency can make a rly good tag! it's style is simple but different. (also note that there is a "jamal" in the first pic and a "loki" in the fourth pic). i love kool cig!!!
"benon"

benon is all over, especially more by me in hermosa rather than deep in logan square. benon is a good example of how observing tags can feel like putting together a little puzzle sometimes! the first few benon i saw were just quick hand style tags where it was hard to tell if it was “bevon” or “benon”, but the more i saw around, and eventually seeing the bubble letters confirmed it, i felt confident it was benon. i also missed a sticker of theirs i saw too while biking! it’s cool that they do tags, throwies, and stickers//so comprehensive!
"wonder"

fucking gay...! ~wonder~ if its a lomelda reference. i love the angel and the lowkey :/ face built into the tag. u can also spot a "loki" in this photoset!
"peek" (my title)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i loveeee him!!! i saw another of him somewhere but couldn't snap a pic, one of my faves he's so cute!!!!! he kinda reminds me of kilroy was here #legacy
special mention- this guy:
Tumblr media
i just think he's cute and kinda reminds me of matisse (i think the lettering is STG maybe? maybe swear to god? idk)
ok, that's it for part 1 since tumblr will only let me upload 30 photos at once! pt 2 coming soon!!

✧ Founders CAS Challenge ✧
created by: @volcano-pasta
@simthropology tagged me to do this, thank you Rei! 
As many of you know, the Arringtons have been going on for a very long time, and truly, I don’t have a file I play on my own time, so I dont really have many founders. With that being said, I took my own little spin on this challenge and did two “true” founders, my Tumblr “founder” and another sim I made for a side thing I did. The only changes made to these sims for this challenge were my default skin and eyes that I refused to take out. 
Now to tag @dulcetssims, @chaosxsims, @waysims, @faiirydustt, @somegaysimmer, @honeyduuw, @junktrait, @citrusblossoms, and @ anyone else who sees and whats to do this!
More info about all these sims and who they are under the cut. 
Top Left Corner: Azure Locklear, my first ever sims 4 heir
I made her back when all we had of sims 4 was a demo cas, then, I ended up playing with her for a bit when I got the game. I only lasted 3 gens with her family, however. 
Top Right Corner: Lolita McCann Arrington, the true head of the Arrington legacy. 
Lolita and her sister Lanelle are the true founders of the Arringtons. I started playing with them when I got bored of the Locklears and obviously, haven’t stopped yet. So, if you do the math, technically, I am on generation 5 in-game right now about to start generation 6. Do y’all see any similarities between her and the current Arringtons? 
Bottom Left Corner: Adrian Arrington, the Tumblr founder of the Arrington legacy. 
If you have been here since I was Misfitifulsims, you know this man. He was the first sim ever featured on my blog. There isn’t a ton to say about him since his entire story is on my blog already. What I will say, William looks eerily similar to him and I do not know why. 
I stg all the Arringtons still have that nose and those eyes. It’s a curse and I can't get away from it. Maybe gen 6 will be the end of it.  
Bottom Right Corner: Ruth Donavan, my bachelorette challenge sim from last Spring. 
Since I didn’t have any more founders and I wanted a sim somewhat more recent, I chose Ruth, who you might’ve seen if you saw my bachelorette challenge from last year. There isn’t a ton to say about her either besides the fact that I think she is the cutest out of the bunch.
